I agree with most of those (except #3), but it's presented in such a partisan way that it feels like nails on a chalkboard. Some of these actions (especially #4 and #2) also have much clearer and non-controversial justifications like the rohingya genocide.

Do you think that targeting advertisers can be executed with zero bias? Or what about "independent researchers"....can they decide things with no bias?

Ads should be targeted based on the content they are served with, not by profiling users.

Weed legalization ads should have been only targeted at people who searched for weed?

Or, ads can be untargeted, which also does not need profiling.
